The Recent Hawaiian Revolution.

Sir Alfred Gooch OF England, who was in
the Sandwich Islands, during the recent
revolution, said in New York:
l attended the mass meeting at which
the resolutions about the king and the OPT
um bribe were passed. When l left, which
was July 1, the Hawaiians were under
arms and parading the streets. All the sa-
looms were shut and they had arrested
Gibson. II the king had not agreed to dis
miss his cabinet and have another one, /
don't know what would have happened.
II it wasndt a revolution, all know is that
the king was armed and had his palace
barricaded inside with sand bags, had got
all his guard under arms, and believe was
intending to fight for it"
what do you know about Gibson2"
HE had a very wonderful career. I
believe that he was q Mormon and all
that, and he is a very astute man..
They say that he had sent lot
OF money over to this country
SO as to make his spoils secure, knowing
the game was up. About $4,000 was
the figure they put it at. Ii the American
government makes any change in the sugar
duty arrangements it will smash up the
island entirely. The great blot in the
American administration OF affairs there
is that money is voted by the native legis-
lature and comes out OF the pockets OF the
British and Americans, the natives raise
the taxes and practically the foreign resi-
dents pay them, and theY waste tic mon.
cy most shameiuliy.

NEWS IN BRIEF.
Death Of John Taylor, Chief of the Mormons.

"c"th VI Sohh iaSiOr, 0hlet vi the MorWohS.
John Taylor, President of the Mormon
thrreh, died on the 25th. He was from
England, and Joined the Mormons in Ohio.
Here he became conspicuous for his zeal
and courage in defending the tenets OF
"Mormonisn," and his strong personal
friendship Tor the prophet, Joseph Smith.
He went with the church to Missouri, whef
he was ordained one OF the Twelve Apos'
ties. He suffered with his co-religionists
the miseries that attended the expulsion
of the Mormons from that state i'll 1888.
lie took II prominent part IN the re-
organization of the fugitive saints III llh-
nois. and in the building OF the city of
Nauvoo. There he became editor OF the
official journal OF the church.
When Joseph and Hiram Smith were
confined prisoners i'll the Carthage jail FL
der Taylor stayed with them as q friend
and visitor. When they were assussinated
lie WAS present, aud was himself shot in
four places by the mob When the Nor
mons were eXiled from Nauvoo. Elder Tay-
lor accompanied them to the Missouri riv-
er. lie, as one of the Apostles, took prom.
inent part i'll the organization and guild
ance of the companies OF expatriated
saints, who followed the pioneers und II
Brigham Young in their peril lous Journey
across the plains and the Rocky mount
ans. He was also among the most encr
eetic in the formation OF the Mormon bat
TALON OF 800 men who enlisted to serve
rs volunteers in the war with Mexico. He
went on several preaching missions to
foreign lands, chief among which WAS one
OF the earliest to Great Britain; those to
France and Germany.
When Brigham Young died in 1877,
Elder Taylor stood, by seniority, at the
head oi the council OF apostles and con-
sequently was de facto head OF the church.
Three years later Taylor was elected presi-
dent, with George q. Cannon and Joseph
+. Smith as his eounselors.
Alter the massage OF the Edmunds law OF
1882, he pretended to give up his wives,
hut constantly preached that no Mormon
could do this and nobody believed he had
done it. lie was Indicted early in 1850.
He last appeared IN public July l, 1885.
Since then he has been in hiding from the
officers of the law.
George Q. Cannon publishes long, vio-
lent announcement OF his death in the
peseret News. charging his death to the
cruelty OF officers OF the law in not permit
ting Taylor to come ont and have his us
ual exercise, Cannon says: Taylor occu-
pied the place OF IL double martyr
that he has been killed by the cruelty OF
officials who have in this territory mis-
represented the government oi the United
States again. His blood stains the clothes
oi those men who. with iusenate hate, Of
fered rewards for his arrest, aud have
bounded him TO the grave. History will
yet call their deeds by their right names,
but one greater than the combined voices
of all historians will yet pronounce their
dreadful sentence"

The country adjacent to Norfolk,
Va, has become great trucking re.
gion since the war. When q season
OF good yields and fair prices is struck
there is large pecuniary reward in
the business, and the present seems
to have been a season Of that sort. A
correspondent at Norfolk mentions
one trucker who, on two hundred and
sixty-five acres Of land, has netted a
handsome fortune this season, with
an immense crop of potatoes.

O'Brien, member OF parliament and editor
OF United Ireland, on the subject OF the

first effect OF the measure would be to
bankrupt and destroy q majority OF the

destroy the government which had pur-
chased office with concessions destructive
to the Conservative party. After IL bitter
struggle of six months the ministry had
adopted Mr. Parnell's. bill and it was the

eng ineer, of Hutchins Brothers, Joliet, ILL
nois, who is interested in the manufacture Of
steel wire nails and who comes to our city at
the solicitation of Mr.. g. W. Bartholomew,
called yesterday in company with the latter
gentleman. Mr.. Hutchins said "Wichita
is an eye opener; the most womb rfully grow
ing and wide awake energetic place l ever
saw or expected to see. and am captivated
with her possibilities" Mr.. H. came here to
see what kind of an opening Wichita might
be for the esta blishiDg Of steel wire nail
plant. He does not come asking site nor
bonus Of any character but to determine in
bis own mil and for bis friends Wichita's
chances and claims as being another
link in the CT ain Of great commercial
cities, whether as dis ributipg point and
future CT numerical center the leads all other
cites west of Ksnsas City. The steel wire
nail, large, medium size, single, latn and
finishing =slls Of all sizes are coming into
very general use. In keg there are just
a fifty per cent greater number than there
are of the old styled iron nail, and it is
claimed that they are better nail. There is
but shades differente In the cost perpourd,
.hile OF the steel nail the buyer gers three
nails for every two of the old styled nail
The nail is made automatically by machine
from a wire which is drawn or rolled from
Swiss bar steel, one machine making four
hegs per day Of lath nails and twenty kegs
per day of spikes.
Wichita is the place for such nail factory.
